There are multiple routes but our experience is that it works best if you can have somebody with a decent logic stat to build learning on. With that in mind a Doctor, Academic or Private Investigator work really well, but each plays very differently

Get the PDF and give it a chance. That's a bit too narrow of thinking for a system like MYZ. There are no penalties for a character to "study or lean" skills that seemingly fall outside their archetype. While characters do have a "Main skill" the player is free to place points elsewhere. In the group I am running now there is an Academic (Historian), their main skill is Learning, however, she has points in Close Combat. Why? Because she studies Canne de combat as a past-time. With such a small list of skills, it's not difficult for multiple characters to have a point in Learning and/or Investigation. There are just some characters who will likely be better at these things because of their archetype, the Private Detective vs Doctor due to the "Main Skill." It also pays to keep in mind the type of game that Vaesen is, it's part investigation/mystery solving, not kill the monster and take the treasure. In other words, characters become more tailored to the concept that the player wants. The game is much broader than people think.

Same here. Love the Alien universe but I've never played any RPG let alone been a GM. Lot's of reading to do for me

Glad it helped

Yeah, but the game sounds amazing!!

Could be worse, though, eh?

Is there somewhere to find a tts group to play with? New to rpg but LOVE alien.

It will be interesting to see how we develop over the campaign.

Should be interesting. They are working a mythic Britain according to a recent interview

@@boxtoboard1403 ooh! There's such a wealth of creatures to add. A lot are similar to those in the core rules but Kelpies would be a cool addition

You could probably adapt the brook horse or Neck without too much effort to be honest I suspect

Thanks for the feedback. This is now quite an old video and on the suggestion of good people like yourself I invested in a mic etc and the sound on more recent videos should be a lot better.

@@boxtoboard1403 Awesome! Thanks again for the great content.

It certainly doesn't seem as dense as Star Trek Adventures did first time round but I quite like that.

I had a copy of the pdf for A Wicked Secret which is the first expansion published for the game with 4 mysteries in it and then I literally just used screenshots from the book into a powerpoint to use on zoom. It really is a superb game. I'm putting together a load of content for the channel based round it to help players and GMs. So for example a couple of videos going through what the different types of Vaesen are at a very basic level but with no real spoilers. Basically the idea is to allow players to have the same understanding that someone who'd heard fairy tales in the region would have. Best way not to miss those is to be sure to subscribe!

​@@boxtoboard1403 Suscribed time ago thanks to your Alien RPG review! :D I started to play TTRPGs with some friends since the beginning of the quarantine using roll20, but I would like to explore some alternatives, because we also stream our games, but some times it gets messy while displaying some elements... Your stream looks so clean, nice job!

We simply use Zoom because it's a very clean system and easy to record on

Ah that makes sense. I always found it slightly odd.
